18．Traditionally，fashion retailers（零售商）had four collections per year，one for each season but nowadays companies can design and manufacture （大量生產(chǎn)）clothes in as little as four weeks．Fast fashion means that the latest designs that appear at the fashion shows in Paris，London，etc．can be copied and shown within a month．
The advantages of rapidly changing fashions are clear．Shortening the product life cycle means if a design doesn't sell well within a week，it is taken out of the shops and a new design is chosen．This is good for the manufacturer as it means vaster sales，and good for the customer as they can keep up with fast-moving trends cheaply-and every time they visit the store，there is something new．
However，there are also a number of disadvantages to this approach．One of them is the theft of ideas．Fashion houses spend a lot of time and money on new ideas，only to see these ideas copied for free by fast-fashion companies．Perhaps the greatest concern is the influence on the environment of wasted clothes．Buying twelve new sets of clothes rather than four means that more clothes will be thrown away．In addition，with fashions changing so quickly，cotton growers need to produce more cotton more cheaply，and that means using more chemicals．
At the other end of the fashion industry is designer clothing．At the same time as fast fashion is taking off in the West，Asian consumers are buying more and moer expensive，luxury brands．Many buy branded clothes just to show that they can afford them but others choose them for quality．What's your choice？We'd like to hear your comments about the fashion industry today．
 
32．According to the attraction of fast-fashion clothes for people？A
A．The low price．
B．The high quality．
C．The famous brand               
D．The mass production．
33．Who are against fast fashion？A
A．Fashion designers．
B．Clothes producers．
C．Customers                             
D．Retailers．
34．What is people's biggest worry about fast fashion？A
A．It is harmful to the environment．
B．It leads to bad consumption habits．
C．It decreases fashion shows'popularity．
D．It greatly influences the planting of other crops．
35．What is the author's attitude towards fast fashion？D
A．Worried．
B．Doubtful．
C．Surprised．
D．Objective．

分析 本文主要講述了現(xiàn)在的人越來越追求時尚，尤其是快速時尚，文章對其進(jìn)行了簡單的描述．

解答 32．A 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，good for the customer as they can keep up with fast-moving trends cheaply-and every time they visit the store，there is something new．對于顧客而言，花費(fèi)低價就能跟隨潮流，而且每次去商店都有新發(fā)現(xiàn)，這是最吸引他們的，結(jié)合選項，故選A
33．A 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，One of them is the theft of ideas．Fashion houses spend a lot of time and money on new ideas，only to see these ideas copied for free by fast-fashion companies．時尚工作室花費(fèi)大量的時間和金錢做出來的衣服，卻眼見著這些創(chuàng)意被其它快速時尚公司剽竊，結(jié)合選項，時裝設(shè)計師是最不愿意看到這一現(xiàn)象的，故選A
34．A 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，Perhaps the greatest concern is the influence on the environment of wasted clothes．Buying twelve new sets of clothes rather than four means that more clothes will be thrown away．In addition，with fashions changing so quickly，cotton growers need to produce more cotton more cheaply，and that means using more chemicals．快速時尚意味著類似于衣服的東西會很快被淘汰，而生產(chǎn)更多新東西會需要用到更多的社會以及自然資源．會對環(huán)境帶來負(fù)擔(dān)，結(jié)合選項，故鄉(xiāng)選A
35．D 態(tài)度題．根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，根據(jù)最后一段，作者對不同人追求品牌進(jìn)行了描述，并且最后問道：What's your choice？We'd like to hear your comments about the fashion industry today．想知道大眾是如何看待快速時尚行業(yè)的，由此推斷，作者是客觀的描述了這一社會現(xiàn)象而言，結(jié)合選項，故選D

點評 本文是一個政治經(jīng)濟(jì)類閱讀，題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題，做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析，結(jié)合選項選出正確答案．推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測，一定要做到有理有據(jù)．

6．How much empathy（共鳴）do you feel towards other people？If you saw someone fall off their bike in traffic，would you stop and help-or just walk away？Many people would give into coldness，go about their business and just do nothing．So it was a big surprise when about 100 by standers got together recently to move a bus in east London to help a cyclist trapped under it．A video of theincident went viral on social media．
According to Zoheb，a driver who stopped his car to take part in the rescue，about fivepeople gathered to move the bus．He says："There was no chance we could do it，it was more an invitation for other people to help，really．"
The initiative（主動能力）paid off．Diners from nearby restaurants joined in．There wasn't much coordination but it didn't take long to develop a collective understanding of what the objective was．
Spontaneous（自發(fā)的）cooperation among strangers doesn't happen often．People in a crowd are not sure what to do-they don't have a plan．It's one of the reasons，bystanders often do nothing，according to Dr Mark Levine，professor of social psychology at Exeter University inBritain．"The presence of others can prevent you from helping"，he says．
"The keyto positive group behaviour，"Levine explains，"isbuilding a sense of shared identity．Action has to be decided quickly．"Levinesays．"Thelonger you leave it，the harder it is to make adecision．If youdon't immediately act then you kind of think'Well，actually I probably couldn't have done anything anyway'．"
But the people whotookthe initiative like Zobeb might make a difference．The cyclist ended up in hospital and the images of the collective effort might inspire others to more acts of unity．

24．Why did the author say it was a big surprise when the rescue was made？A
A．So many people gave a hand．
B．Many by standers did no thing．
C．It spread on social media．
D．It didn't catch people's attention．
25．Which of the following best describes the driver Zoheb according to the text？B
A．Generous．
B．Kind-hearted．
C．Optimistic．
D．Easy-going．
26．Why do people give in to coldness when they should be helping according to Levine？C
A．They don't know how to give first aid．
B．Nobody wants to be the first to offer help．
C．Strangers seldom cooperate with each other．
D．They are forbidden from helping．
27．What can we learn from the text？D
A．The sense of shared identity makes no difference．
B．It's not necessary to make a quick decision．
C．It's impossible for strangers to cooperate．
D．Collective effort is inspiring．

13．SCIENTISTS study it；an increasing number of self-help books tell us the way to find it．In fact，the pursuit of happiness has been called the ultimate goal in life by countless talks，TV shows and newspaper and magazine columns．However，happiness，as it was before，is still hard to find．
US psychologist Ed Diener，author of Happiness：Unlocking the Mysteries of Psychological Wealth，may have the answer："a combination of life satisfaction and having more positive than negative emotions"．However，this may sound straightforward enough，but it still doesn't explain what determines people's happiness．And as The Washington Post argued in an article earlier this month，creating a definition of happiness that is true for people around the world can seem as difficult as being happy．For example，who is happier：someone who has enough money to buy a new mobile phone or someone who has a family dinner after years away from home？
Nevertheless，as many surveys suggest，one of the most important parts of happiness is wealth．The UN's World Happiness Report 2015 shows that countries with the highest levels of happiness are developed ones，with Switzerland，Iceland and Denmark making up the top three．But on the other hand，Bhutan，one of the poorest countries in the world，was named the happiest country in Asia and the eighth happiest in the world in research by Business Week in 2012．
Perhaps the biggest problem is how the idea of"happiness"varies in different cultures and languages．
As The Washington Post noted，the word"happy"can refer to different things in English．It might mean a brief mood you feel when someone surprises you with a gift or you think of friends and family．Or it could refer to satisfaction with your life．But not all languages refer to happiness the same way．In Danish，for example，happiness is often translated as"lykke"，a term that can describe everyday well-being that might come from a nice cup of coffee or a slice of bread with cheese．In Chinese，the word for happiness is xingfu，which is used to describe a good life and a life with meaning．For a good mood，however，kuaile is used more often．
Another difference in the perception of happiness，as The Washington Post put it，is that Western countries tend to have quite an"individualistic view of human life"．In China and many other Asian countries，social relationships，with family in particular，are one of the most important factors in a person's well-being．
So，are you happy？And what makes you happy？

32．What does"happiness"in Chinese mean according to the article？D
A．Individualistic view of human life．
B．Everyday well-being．
C．A combination of satisfaction．
D．A good life with meaning．
33．How do Chinese people and people from Western countries view happiness differently？C
A．Wealth is regarded as the most important source of happiness in Western countries．
B．Social interaction plays a more important role in a person's well-being in Western countries than in China．
C．Family bonds are believed to be closely connected to a person's well-being in China．
D．Chinese people get more happiness from their personal achievements than people from Western countries do．
34．How is the article mainly developed？A
A．By giving examples．
B．By analyzing cause and effect．
C．By following the order of time．
D．By asking and answering questions．
35．Which one is true according to the article？B
A．It is harder to find happiness than ever．
B．All languages don't look at happiness in the same way．
C．It's safe to say that happiness lies in wealth．
D．It's not hard to give a universal definition of happiness across the world．

3．WASHINGTON-Thousands of public schools stopped teaching foreign languages in the last decade，according to a survey．But another contrary trend has educators and policy makers abuzz：a rush by schools in all parts of America to offer instructions in Chinese．
Some schools are paying for Chinese classes on their own，but hundreds are getting some help．The Chinese government is sending teachers from China to schools all over the world-and paying part of their salaries．
No one keeps an exact count，but rough calculations based on the government's survey suggest that perhaps 1，600 American public and private schools are teaching Chinese，up from 300 or so a decade ago．And the number is growing exponentially（成倍地）．
"It's really changing the language education landscape of this country，"said Nancy C．Rhodes，director at the center．Other indicators point to the same trend．"The number of students taking the Advanced Placement test in Chinese，introduced in 2007，has grown so fast that it is likely to pass German this year as the third most-tested A．P．language，after Spanish and French"，said Trevor Packer，vice president at the College Board．
"We've all been surprised that in such a short time Chinese would grow to surpass A．P．German，"Mr．Packer said．
A decade ago，most of the schools with Chinese programs were on the East and West Coasts．But in recent years，many schools have started Chinese programs in heartland states，including Ohio and Illinois in the Midwest，Texas and Georgia in the South，and Colorado and Utah in the Rocky Mountain West．
America has had the study of a foreign language grow before，only to see the bubble burst．Many schools began teaching Japanese in the 1980s，after Japan emerged as an economic rival．But thousands have dropped the language，the survey found．Japanese is not the only language that has declined．Thousands of schools that offered French，German or Russian have stopped teaching those languages，too，the survey found．

25．What's the meaning of the underlined word"abuzz"in the first paragraph？C
A．Be noisy like the sound of a bee．
B．Be lively for various activities．
C．Cause people to discuss something hotly．
D．Motivate people to march bravely．
26．What can we infer from what Mr．Packer said？A
A．More and more people choose Chinese in A．P．test．
B．A．P．test is the most difficult one in the world．
C．Chinese is more important than Spanish and French．
D．Chinese is a necessary subject in most important tests．
27．What can we know from the last two paragraphs？B
A．Many schools started Chinese programs in the Midwest ten years ago．
B．Chinese programs have been started in more areas in America recently．
C．American schools have stopped teaching French，German and Russian．
D．People are gradually fond of learning Chinese and Japanese in recent years．
28．What is the main idea of the passage？B
A．Chinese is being learned as an official language in America．
B．Foreign Languages fade in American schools except Chinese．
C．Teaching Chinese in foreign countries has become a trend．
D．Foreign languages are no longer being taught in America．
